(Dad and Mom walk to the cinema to see Ghost.)
Dad: Ghost will be on at 6:30. It’s already 6:15 now. Hurry up.
(Mom feels a little angry.)
Mom: You’d been hanging around before left home. Well, now, you are urging me for the movie. This has been fun!
Dad: Don’t be upset. I am just afraid of missing the movie. It is your favorite.
Mom: In short, you become more and more impatient with me after wedding.
Dad: Why do you think so?
Mom: Every time I complain about the domestic chores with you, you just don’t listen.
Dad: Nothing of the sort!
Mom: Don’t interrupt me! In addition, every time I need your advice, you just say, "it’s up to you."
Dad: Maybe I was busy with my work at that time, so I felt a little bored.
Mom: You mean, I am not busy with my work?
Dad: Honey, don’t get me wrong. (Don’t misunderstand me.) I don’t know how to explain. But I really have eyes only for you and our children.
Mom: Do you still love me?
Dad: Honey, maybe sometimes I seem careless, but I take great care to cooking breakfast every morning. That shows how much I love you.
(Mom drops into silence.)
Mom: Oh, honey, that’s enough. Our love story is more touching than the Ghost.
Dad: Let’s go to see the movie. It’s time to begin.

爸爸：《人鬼情未了》将在六点半开演。现在已经六点十五了，快点啊。
(妈妈感到有点生气。)
妈妈：你在家磨磨蹭蹭的。现在有为了赶电影一直催我。真有意思!
爸爸：别着急。我只是怕错过电影嘛。这可是你最喜欢的电影。
妈妈：简而言之，结婚后你对我越来越不耐烦了。
爸爸：你为什么这样认为?
妈妈：每次我对你抱怨家务事时，你总是不听。
爸爸：哪有这回事!
妈妈：别打断我!另外，每次我需要给些意见的时候，你只是说："你说了算。"
爸爸：可能是那个时候我忙于工作，感觉有些烦吧。
妈妈：你的意思是说，我工作不忙吗?
爸爸：亲爱的，不要误会我。我不知道该怎么解释。但是我真的非常在乎你和孩子们。
妈妈：那你还爱我吗?
爸爸：亲爱的，可能有时候我显得很粗心大意，但是每天早晨我都会很用心的做饭。这代表了我有多爱你。
(妈妈沉默了片刻。)
妈妈：哦，亲爱的，这足够了。我们的爱情故事比《人鬼情未了》还要动人。
爸爸：那我们就快去看电影吧。马上要开演了。
